iOS development freelancing advice

Hello everyone, I need some advice about how I can go about becoming a freelancer for iOS and other things down the road. I'm pretty good at iOS Development but the only thing is I have no apps to showcase my skills, Ive been working on a startup the past couple months and I can't show that for obvious reason until it is finished. In the mean time what can I do to start getting clients? Should I make a simple app and put it on the app store as proof, what are some good sites to get clients? and Are there any tips I should know before I start such as how to get paid and taxes?
I'm looking to move soon because and that means I need to make money! Thanks in advanced!

Yes absolutely.

Upwork

Are there any tips I should know before I start such as how to get paid and taxes?
It depends of the country of residence. You'd better consult the lawyer and study Upwork forum.

Good luck!

You could start by building a few small apps to showcase your skills since your startup work isn’t public yet. Sites like Upwork or LinkedIn are good for finding initial clients, and checking resources like Idea Maker’s iOS app development services
can help you see how to present your work professionally. Be sure to use contracts, set up reliable payment methods, and keep records for taxes. Starting with smaller projects first will make the transition smoother.
